Your CITB SMSTS Certificate is valid for five years, after which you must complete the SMSTS Refresher Course to renew it.
At Target Zero Training, we make it easy for site managers and supervisors to renew their SMSTS qualification either online or in person — with expert tutors, flexible dates, and full support from start to finish.
What Is the SMSTS Refresher Course
The SMSTS Refresher is a two-day training designed for professionals who have already completed the Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) course.
It updates your knowledge of health and safety legislation, industry best practice, and the latest construction regulations so you stay competent and compliant on site.
This course is essential if you are responsible for managing or supervising construction projects and want to keep your CITB certification valid.

When Do You Need to Renew Your SMSTS Certificate
Your SMSTS certificate expires five years after completion. You must attend the SMSTS Refresher Course before it expires to renew successfully.
If you miss your renewal window, you will need to retake the full five-day SMSTS course, which takes more time and costs more money.
That is why booking your refresher early ensures you maintain continuous certification and avoid gaps in compliance.
What You Will Learn in the SMSTS Refresher
The course is designed to refresh and reinforce your existing knowledge while introducing new safety updates.
Topics include:
- Latest updates in construction health and safety law
- CDM Regulations and site responsibilities
- Managing risk and method statements
- Environmental awareness and sustainability
- Leadership and behavioural safety
- Effective communication and toolbox talks
By the end of the course, you will have an up-to-date understanding of the key responsibilities of a site manager and renewed confidence to lead safely.
